The Bahrain national rugby sevens team is a minor sevens side. They have competed in the Hong Kong Sevens. They are traditionally seen as "minnows". For example, in the 1989 Hong Kong Sevens, they lost 52âÂÂ0 to New Zealand and 24âÂÂ4 to the Netherlands.
The first team representing Bahrain at sevens competed at the Hong Kong Sevens in 1978 (doing so for seven non-consecutive tournaments until 1989). However this was likely the Bahrain RFC founded in 1971, containing exclusively foreign nationals.
The first official team played in the 2023 Asia Rugby Sevens Trophy held in Doha, Qatar where they reached the final, losing to Thailand.
